Текст песни I Envy The Earth - Chris Kläfford

As I lay down in the cool, quiet ground
She still preys on my mind
And I whisper lies to my lover's eyes
Today we leave her behind

Oh, God, I envy the earth that she's in
I envy the roots that'll wrap 'round her skin
When it's all said and done, we'll hide from the sun
'Til there'll come a day when we share the ground

As I search for sleep while she rests in peace
Out in the place where she lays
The skies, they will weep, the wounds will run deep
Until the end of my days

Oh, God, I envy the earth that she's in
I envy the roots that'll wrap 'round her skin
When it's all said and done, we'll hide from the sun
'Til there'll come a day when we share the ground

And after I'm gone to where I belong
Right between birch and pine
And forever is ours, along with wildflowers
Your roots tangled up with mine

Oh, God, I envy the earth that she's in
I envy the roots that'll wrap 'round her skin
When it's all said and done, we'll hide from the sun
'Til there'll come a day when we share the ground
